The Japanese McDonalds tastes just like the American McDonalds. Except the meat tastes better in Japan. 560￥isn't really expensive, and roughly equals 4.99-5.30.

The Japanese Big Mac really isn't bad. Just about everything (Kit Kat, Fanta, Pepsi, Coke) is changed a little bit for local tastes. Anyway, I gained MANY pounds eating those damn Big Macs when I would go out to get a bite at my lunch break. Haven't been to a Makkers since I got back to the US. What tripped me out was they had these really good fish nuggets instead of chicken nuggets when that whole Avian Flu thing broke. I guess KFC is probably crushing them in the chicken department. Anyway, if I had it to do over again, I would avoid Makkers at all cost! It's not good enough to justify the calories. Some nice yaki-tori or anything would be better...

err, it just looks like thousand island sauce. That is a big mac after all, big macs use thousand island not mayonase. I eat them all the time, well before my diet. It makes me hungry looking at that picture.

I will not read past this first page. The food that you all described sounds extremely delicious and is making me all the more frustrated that I can't go to Japan, not to mention hungry for fish. I can't wait to go to Japan. I will go there soon after I leave home less than two years from now.

Okay i have come back with another question. what is Qoo? All i know is that it is made by the Coca-Cola Company. (Ko-ka-Kora) and that it's japanese name is Ku---. (sorry no IME, I'm in the library). Is this a soda, a snack, a fruit drink? Why does it cost $13.00?!!! Is it good? is it nasty? Is it eatable? Where can I get it? Sorry if these are stupid question, but I went to the Qoo homepage and it seems like it has a good popularity and all. I just want to know what it is.

that's actually done quite frequently in the west.. in utah, idaho, wyoming, there is a company that markets it and calls it fry sauce. ketchup, mayo and some worchestashire sauce.. i like it as well. it goes great on burgers too.

DUDE.. This is the eating in JAPAN thread. Breverages fall into this catagory.
If I go to japan and someone offers me Qoo I want to know what I am drinking.
Besides IF I started a new thread, there would be flames telling me to post in the appropriate thread. This question has nothing to do with any other subject then what is specified. I have found the answer to my question elseware, but still. Qoo is not offered or sold in America but Japan and China. You telling me to make a new thread just for one beverage seems like a completly insane thing for me to do.
Where I come from beverages are listed in the food section, its totally appropriate to ask this question here. Saying that it's not is like saying food marts don't sell soda, water, juice, tea, fruit drinks, coffee, kool-aid, sports drink, energy drinks.. etc... What are they all? Beverages, and in a food mart no less.
